To solve multi-radio multichannel (MRMC) wireless Mesh network channel assignment problems, we propose and study the PGCA (channel assignment based on potential game) method. PGCA takes each link of the network as a player by designing rational potential function. The action strategies between links select resources containing channel and space information. PGCA converts maximum network throughput into minimum network interference by joint game. Simulation results show PGCA algorithm has better performance in terms of convergence speed and the network throughput. The end-to-end delay has connected with the number of links.
